Why we made this

Delivering a baby is a superhuman effort, but every hero needs a sidekick. For you, that’s us.
‍
We’re here to support you through every step of your pregnancy journey. That means caring for you immediately after you give birth — when you need it most.

Soothing Padsicles are a hospital bag essential designed to ease pain and discomfort down there and help you feel better, faster.

We created our postpartum padiscles with instant crack-and-cool technology to save you precious time spent on freezing padsicles, so you can focus on what matters.
Tears
Soreness
Swelling
Itching
Haemorrhoids

Tears

85-90% of first-time mums will experience tearing as the baby's head squeezes through. Stitches are often required. [1]

Soreness

Aches and pain after delivery can linger for days or weeks.

Swelling

A common response to the goings-on down there. Swelling will ease within a few months.

Itching

Healing scars around the vagina can be a little itchy. This is easily relieved.

Haemorrhoids

Veins in the rectum can become swollen and sore after pushing. Haemorrhoids affect around 43% of women after birth. [2]

Ask us anything

Seriously, our experts have all the answers.

Can the Soothing Padsicles be used after C-Section births?

How do I use the Soothing Padsicles?

For vaginal recovery:
1. Activate the ice pad by folding the pads in half.
2. Give it a shake and remove the pad from the sleeve.
3. Peel back the purple adhesive strips and secure the pads to your underpants.

For C-section recovery:
1. Activate the ice pad by folding the pads in half.
2. Give it a shake and remove the pad from the sleeve.
3. Gently place the soft, top surface layer on your incision area.

Are the padsicles reusable?

Like using pads for your period, you’ll need to change your padsicle about every four-six hours to deal with postpartum bleeding. Each padsicle is disposable and not reusable.

How do I know when to call my doctor?

right arrow
It’s normal to experience some pain and discomfort while you recover from delivery, and it’s a good idea to ask your doctor or midwife about what you can expect. Postpartum symptoms tend to improve each day, but if you find your symptoms are worsening, then give your doctor a call.
